[Verse 1] I chased the loud I missed the truth Spent my best years trying to prove I climbed hills that led nowhere Funny now I don't care [Chorus] Life don't wait Life don't bend It keeps on teaching till the end If I knew then what I know now I'd hold on less I'd live somehow If I knew then I'd waste no time I'd trust my gut I'd call it mine [Verse 2] Stand your ground Turn it around I'd say I love you one more time I'd work less hard I'd watch the sky I'd laugh more loud I'd sleep more sound I'd stop chasing what can't be found The best things cost nothing at all The strongest people still can fall [Chorus] If I knew then what I know now I'd walk my road I'd take my bow If I knew then I'd feel much less I'd count my friends Forget the rest [Bridge] Sing it loud Right here right now Every wrong turn brought me here Every heartbreak made it clear You don't get another start So live today With all your heart [Chorus] If I knew then what I know now I'd choose the slow road I'd make life count If I knew then I'd still fall down But I'd get back up Every time around [Outro] No looking back I'm on my track If I knew then what I know now What I know now
